about

The second album of bassist Michał Bąk Quartetto, released by the Tri-City lebel - Alpaka Records. He co-creates it with Emil Miszk on trumpet, Jakub Klemensiewicz on tenor saxophone and Sławek Koryzno on drums.

The idea of the band is to combine the worlds of jazz and classical music with contemporary improvisation. With the help of various means of expression inspired by the old masters of classical music, and using modern performance techniques, the musicians want to express their current experiences. "Fortress" is a space in which we feel safe; where can we find a rest from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, our doubts or the problems that surround us.
